An extended effort is being made by experts -ent out from the horticultural division of the extension department of Purdue university to reach every farmer in the state who owns an orchard, Demonstration meetings will be held in representative orchards of each community and the work of pruning, spraying and fighting pests will be handled thoroughly by the experts in charge. The average size of the Indiana orchard is about three acres. Very few of these home orchards are paying even interest on the money invested in the land. In 1910 the 10,000,000 fruit trees in Indiana pr. duced less than 5,000,000 bushels of fruit. In order to remedy this lack of production it is essential that every fruit grower and farmer attend these demonstration meeting and observe the methods used for 'the home orchard

Mr. and Mrs. A. S. Goff attended the Baptist Association at Brown,s Valley from Tuesday until Thursday. Mr. and Mrs. Emerson Grenard and little daughter Elnora were Sunday guests of Mr. and Mrs. Clifford Coon.

New Richmond.

After practically three consecutive Sundays without church services, next Sabbath should be go-to-church day with all our people. There will be morning and evening worship. Every one will have an opportunity to attend one or both of these services, Let next Sunday be made a rally day, both in point of attendance and spiritual uplift. If you are a member of the church let Sunday be a vow paying day: make its services the objects of greatest interest and prayer. Examine carefully the cartoon of envelopes, and make Sunday a getting-out-of debt day. If every pledge made lust fail can be turned in next Sunday by the person making the pledge or by another, it will be a day or great rejoicing. The Lord will bless and honor us if we thus honor Him. I sincerely believe we can do this and much more. When we consider that only four more Sundays remain in this conference year, after next Sabbath we are almost startled at the suddeuess of its close. In these remaining days and weeks every member young and old ought to ask what do I luck? What remains for me to do that new members may be added to the church: that the church may close this year out of debt, with absolutely every obligation paid. These are questions each of us ought to ask and answer honestly. If I as pastor and you as a member of the church do this, then ask our heavenly Father to help us to make good, we shall have the best closing days this conference year we have ever had. I shall do this; and I believe you will.

Plans are being made for the provision of aerial landing places throughout Great Britain. At first these "air” ports will be situated at places where they are most needed by the services, but in course of time it is hoped to have 40 or 60 dotted about the country. i

Public Auction.

At least 25 acres will be required for each landing place, and they will be equipped with two hangars, fuel, spare parts, telephone, and, where possible, a wireless installation. It is hoped that the financial resources will be considerably augmented by letting out the landing places as football and recreation grounds, but a considerable sum of money will be necessary for the initial expense. At present, cross-country flying is considerably handicapped by the absence of suitable landing places, and it is hoped that a scheme which arouses local interest as well as patriotism will receive the fullest support in the Old Country, and later in the Dominions.—Montreal Herald.

Mrs. Hester Simms of Chicago was the guest over Sunday of Mrs. Amelia Utterback and ilyPaul Olin spent the latter part of last week with Dr. Olin and family.

At representedve places in the state orchards are kept by the horticultural department as a center from which the farmers may obtain correct information in regard to the care of the tree and fruit In the spring and fall, meetings are culled in these orchards and the results can be observed. Great interest has been aroused in fruit production throuhg these orchards and every orchard managed in this manner has shown a handsome, net profit at the end of every season. Great improvement has been noticed in the gem-ra' health of the trees, the fruit production and the style of equipment used by the owners. At the beginning of the work five years ago not one of the owners possersed even as much as a high pressure hand pump. All work was done by barrel outfits. Now all t ho ordhards are being sprayed with the latest improved types of power sprayers and each owner has figures to show that the improved sprayer pays good interest op the money invested in it.

Costly Treatment.

I used them for some time and am now alright.” Sold by all dealers.-Adv.

Good Reason Why It Was Fed to the Furnaces of the Old Mississippi Steamboats.

Many a Mississippi river steamboat, it is now declared, was blown up in the old days when, in order to win a race, the barrels of resin in the cargo were broached to feed the fires. Eesins add heat value, not only to the wood that contains them, but also to the coal. Being more resistant to decay under water than the wood cells and other tissues of the plants and trees from which the peats of bogs and coal-forming swamps are produced, the resin lumps and particles are generally left to be buried in the peat deposits, even when most of the surrounding wood has rotted away and disappeared. A careful examination of most brown lignites and sub-bituminous coal will generally reveal lumps of resin that are visible to the naked eye. The coal mined in some localities contains abundant large lumps of resin, some as large as walnuts. In places the glistening amber-like resin forma a large part of the coal. Beautiful samples of this sort are found in some of the coal beds in the Philippine islands.

Why Not Tag Indiana Bachelors?*

Mr. and Mrs. Lester O. McClamrock and little daughter Ruth were the guests Saturday night and Sunday of Mr. and Mrs. Pred E. Bible who resides west of New .Richmond.

A great many state legislatures have given consideration to bills taxing bachelors and many convincing arguments have been presented why men who escape matrimony should pay a penalty, but why not tag them us a more painless and effective method of extermination? If the bachelors wore taged the widows could easily find them and Cupid would do the rest. The bachelor is naturally timid, but under the encouraging influences of a merry widow he can easily be led to the altar, for there is no more helpless craft afloat than a love sick swain who has passed the age of discretion, and the little imp that plays ping-pong with human hearts has no more capable ally than a woman who loves, at second sight, for experience makes Cupid subtie aud bold.

The executive committee at its last meeting set next Monday evening as the date of the meeting to arrange for making the final collections aud the every member canvass for next year. You are mterested. Do your full part. Sep to it that the executive committee has your fullest cooperation. In other words the pastor hopes aud thinks he has a right to expect that every member ana every organization in the church will -unite every effort to make the close of this year the best they have ever seen. Let us lift on nigh the standard of the Christ aud hxs church. Let us head the list of the district in the achievements of these last weeks. You may not be able to do much, you can do your part.

The Indiana Potato Patch.

The Indiana Irish potato patch approximately contains 75,00b acres this year aud the total production will be approximate!) 5.145.000 bushels, according to estimates made today by the Unileu States Crop Reportidg Board. The condition of the crop is 7b per cent of normal and the price at the present time is averaging around $1.03 per bushel. In Continental United States there are 3,708,000 acres planted to this product and this year’s production is estimated at 360,614.000 bushels by the Federal Department of Agriculture. This year’s crop will exceed the Average crop of the past five years by approximately 4,000,000 bushels. The nation’s production last year was 331,525,000 bushels, was produced on 3,6(58,000 acres of land aud sold for $227,003,000, or an average of 90 cents per bushel.

Fur the season of 1913 these orchards n,-ited on an average of $105 99 p r acre. One orchard this seas.>n showed a net less of $21.40 per acre and another a net gain of $262.40 per acre. When the ordinary home orchard in Indiana can be made to average $105 99 per acre, there is very little n ed fur the Hoosier farmer to invest his money elsewhere in fruit lands.

The women have tag days to promote most every other public enterprise, and why not a tag day for bachelors? We have in Indiana approximately one hundred thousand bachelors and an equal number of widows. Why not gel them together and solve two vexatious broblems with one marriage license?

BOOT SHOP IN A BOOT.

Good Reason for His Enthusiasm. When a man 1ms suffered for several days with colic, diarrhoea or other form of bowel complaint and is then cured sound and well by one ui two doses of Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, as is often the case, it is but natural that he should be enthusiastic in his praise of the remedy, and especially in this the case of a severe attack when life is threatened. Try it when in need of such a remedy. It never fails Sold by all dealers. —Adv.

A boot six feet long and three feet high, made in correct* proportions and of genuine leather, stands in front of a Los Angeles repair shop. It contains a set of pigeonholes and drawers for nails, tools, etc., and is furnished with a half-horsepower electric motor operating a stitching machine. Standing in his boot, the workman goes on with his task, to the amusement of the crowds that pass along, and the novel advertisement is said to be a trade-bringer.

A DOWNCAST STATE.

J. Crouch & Son of LaFayette Monday received a telegram from Paris, France, asking whether that firm could supply for immediate delivery 15,000 artillery horses for the French .Army and at what price. The animals wanted must weigh between 1,500 and 2,000 pounds and be from 5 to 10 years old. The cable came from a Paris dealer acting for the government. George Crouch said that he would look over the field for a few days and then cable a reply. Crouch recently returned from France and Belgium with a big consignment of horses. He said that the armies of Europe are looking for America to supply them with the necessary artillery horses and possibly cavalry horses as well.
